Found this at total wine. Decanted for about an hour, but hit its stride around an hour and a half in. At first, quite tannic up front. Softened up after some air.

Overall: balanced wine that is drinking well but could ride in the cellar for another decade
Appearance: deep ruby-purple, mostly opaque, with color in the tears and legs
Nose: surprisingly young buttered brioche nose, fruit, and some spice. Fruit is mostly cherries and blackberries. Touch of creaminess. Overall it’s a well integrated nose.
Palate: medium body; medium acid; medium, fairly velvety, tannins, with a slightly stemmy greenness. The fruit carries through to the palate: sour cherries and blackberries. There is some savory smokiness along with some allspice. The palate is resolved but not particularly complex. It’s easy to drink and does not require focus on every sip to get the most out of it.
Finish: long, balanced, powdery dry, and a touch bitter from the young tannins

Pleasant nose of dark red fruit with cocia notes. Balanced acidity with medium weight with some persistence on the finish.

Fully ready to go, the wine opens with smoky, Morello cherries, spice, cocoa with a hint of blueberries. Medium-bodied, soft-textured, sweet, and spicy, the finish leaves you with sweet cherries and a dash of Indian-spiced chocolate. Drink from 2024-2030.

Part of a "Little Brother" or 2nd wine night with my wine group at a NYC restaurant. Others in the group enjoyed this more than I did. It was opened, but not decanted for over an hour before pouring. It just never showed enough body, nose, or flavors for me to give it a higher score.
